Tales of Demons and Gods: After Locking Time and Space

After the Black Demon Forest was hit, it suddenly began to rain and the roars of ferocious beasts began to rise again.

"Ah, what is that?"

The man in black who was knocked unconscious by the light ball woke up and spat out the sticky stuff in his mouth. It was blood. The impact was really strong.

"Fuck it, it's a sin."

He cleaned himself up casually, looked at the big pit in front of him, and suddenly remembered everything that had happened.

"I'm afraid those guys are all dead."

He walked forward cautiously, fearing that another ball of light would fall at any time. Obviously, he was worrying too much this time.

The man in black was frightened by the burning forest in front of him. It was raining heavily, but the fire was still burning. If he had woken up a little later...

Besides, wherever I looked, there was nothing in sight. The originally dense forest was now only bare land. If I looked closely, I could see scattered corpses of monsters.

"We have to go back and report to the boss."

The man in black carefully searched the place where Nie Li and the others disappeared, but there was no trace of them. Could it be that they were burned to ashes? Or did they escape?

The man in black thought of all kinds of possibilities, but there was no answer to such idle fantasies. He just knew that his mission had failed, and he was afraid that he would be punished when he returned.

His strength is not strong, but his speed is extremely fast. He has some advantages over the strong people in the Heavenly Dao Realm. He is not simple.

Yunmeng World.

Nie Li and his companions were knocked unconscious by the shock, but their general positions did not change. Only one person, Yu Yan, stared blankly at the world in front of her? No, it was ruins!

The scenes from her childhood gradually emerged in her mind. At that time, she had a family. Although she only lived with her adoptive parents, her parents were very kind to her. At that time, the Yunmeng world was a real paradise for Yu Yan!

But what about the ruins in front of me? The endless daylight was now covered with dark clouds. There were a few small towns scattered on the vast land. Even the wilderness in the past was not as desolate as this.

Yu Yan was not sad at first, she thought this was not her hometown, but tears flowed from her eyes again. This is the fact, this is the Yunmeng world.

"Ah, where is this?"

Du Ze woke up in a daze. Everyone had a high level of cultivation and woke up after a short coma. They didn't know why they were hit by such a large energy ball but had no injuries on their bodies. They just vaguely remembered that they felt warm when they first came in.

"This is Yunmeng World, my hometown."

Yu Yan remembered some things, but the memory of his parents was still blurry and he couldn't see their faces clearly.

Now she calmed down a little and returned to the present.

"Sister Yuyan, didn't you say that Yunmeng World is beautiful? What's going on?"

Nie Li heard from Yu Yan that the Yunmeng world is a world for ordinary people, where humans and monsters coexist in harmony, and the whole world looks pleasant. However, the scene before him could not remind people of that beautiful world.

"I don't know." Yu Yan had a headache. She didn't want to think about it now.

Ye Ziyun patted Nie Li speechlessly and rolled her eyes.

"If you can't speak, don't speak!"

Several people looked at each other and tactfully stopped talking about this topic. The meteor shower in the sky had not stopped yet. Xiao Ning'er and the other girls were silently making wishes in their hearts. They didn't know that just now, they were just one of the many meteor showers.

It was not known whether it was day or night, but everyone was really tired. They quietly accompanied Yu Yan and rested on the spot. Anyway, there was no village or shop nearby, so they just rested for a night.

At times like this, Duan Jian is naturally the chosen bodyguard!

Memories of the Yunmeng world kept emerging in Yu Yan's mind at this moment. If it were in the past, she would have been so happy, but now, she felt a little resistant. She didn't know what kind of emotion this was, but she had lived for ten thousand years after all, so she would not show it.

Nie Li and his brothers lay on their backs on the grass. Although it was called grass, there was actually not much grass left. It was basically close to a desert state.

They didn't say anything, just looked at the sky silently. Lu Piao held a piece of grass that he had just grabbed in his mouth and kept chewing it. Du Ze thought about the past. His family went from a poor family to a top family now. Although all this was nothing in the Yuanshen Sect, it was like a myth to his family.

As for Nie Li, he had already fallen asleep.

Ye Ziyun, Xiao Ning'er and others sat on the ground, leaning against each other. Having been through life and death together, they were now the closest of sisters, but both of them unconsciously looked towards one person, not knowing what they were thinking about. Xiao Xue didn't say anything, because she had been looking in the same direction.

A night without words...

I don’t know how much time has passed, the sky is still dark, but everyone has woken up. Calculating the time, it should be daytime outside, right?

"I guess we have to go to the city to seek help. If we continue like this, we don't know if we can get out."

Nie Li reminded everyone, then put his hands behind his back and walked towards the city.

The calling voice in Xiao Ning'er's mind disappeared, but she felt inexplicably familiar, even though the Yunmeng world at the moment was not beautiful. She only felt that entering the Yunmeng world was originally because of her.

The little wolfdog was unusually quiet today, following the three young ladies and having a great time.

"Sister Yuyan, we haven't found your space ring yet, why is the Yunmeng world open?" Nie Li asked in confusion.

Each small world was not directly connected to each other. At the very least, there would be magical arrays such as teleportation channels. But this time, they were brought directly into the Yunmeng world as if they were arranged. It was very strange.

"The Yunmeng world has never been open, it is just welcoming the arrival of hope."

Yu Yan said such a nonsensical thing. Nie Li and Du Ze were confused. Only Lu Piao was fighting with one palm and one punch.

"Oh~ Doesn't it mean that we are the saviors? Hahaha, it seems that it is time for me, Lu Piao, to uphold justice, hahaha." Lu Piao began to become complacent. Seeing that Yu Yan did not refute, Nie Li and the others accepted this answer. It was a bit strange for them to break in, and coupled with the warmth they felt when they came in, they knew that it should be Yun Mengtian.

What is strange is that the closer to the city, the more dilapidated the road becomes. Logically speaking, places where humans live should not be so desolate. The situation in this world is really strange.

There was a sword in the sky leading the way. In less than half a day, they arrived at the city they had seen earlier. As soon as they arrived at the city gate, they could see the highest city.

In terms of grandeur alone, it is several times larger than other city towers. However, not only this city tower, but all similar grand city towers are located on the outskirts of the entire city. On the contrary, some city towers in the middle are invisible to everyone, as if they are blocked.

"This group of people don't look like locals. You go and report first." The two soldiers guarding the city gate looked at each other, and one of them rushed directly to the city tower behind him. He saw five huge furnaces on the city he was heading to. He looked carefully and lit one of them.

"I don't know where you are from, and why you are entering the city?"

A guard left at the city gate saw Nie Li and his companions coming towards them and asked.

"We came from the outside world and are now lost. We want to enter the city to seek shelter. Please help us, sir."

Nie Li responded loudly, he put himself in a very humble position, only in this way, it is possible to let others take him in. If he put on an arrogant attitude right after he arrived, who would be willing to accept a few uncles as his worshippers?

The guard did not reply, but turned his head silently to look at the man on the tower, as if waiting for a response.

At this time, on the city wall, you can see a small city in the center of the city. It is more like a house than a city. It does not have the momentum of being in the center of the city. On the contrary, it looks very ordinary and low-key. The only peculiar thing is that there are also huge furnaces in front of it, but there are only three of them.

After a while, one of the stoves lit up.

"Tongchengxing!?"

The soldier was both shocked and confused. Apparently, the way the stove was lit was beyond his expectations. He did not dare to delay and hurried back to the guard at the city gate.

"Let him go!" He waved his hands, his meaning clear and natural.

At this moment, the guards on the city gate did not know that the main city had actually given up the highest authority of the entire city. They were still quite arrogant, as if taking in Nie Li and the others was a great blessing.

"Thank you." Nie Li took the lead and bowed his hands to express his gratitude. The leaders of this city were really generous. They were not afraid that they were undercovers and let them go directly. But it was better this way as it saved a lot of trouble.

After Nie Li and his group entered, the city gate was immediately opened again. The guard who had been on sentry duty just now came back quickly. He was also an ordinary person without any cultivation. He was just an ordinary warrior. However, at this moment, his words and actions became obviously respectful.

This is the person who was released into the city. As a lowly person myself, I have to serve him well.

At this moment, the man on the city gate was stunned, not understanding why such a scene appeared, but he soon understood that only distinguished guests who were traveling through the city were worthy of enjoying such a situation. He hurried down, and two people together, led a few people into the city. Soon, two new people came to guard the city gate.

Nie Li and the others were very confused. It was true that they were allowed to pass, but why did they take us along all the way? Was this considered surveillance? It turned out that although it seemed casual, they were actually being cautious at every step. This city had a future.

Hmm... that's what the group thought.

On the other hand, I don’t know what these people are going to do. Why don’t they say anything? Do they want us to guess? It’s really not easy to get along with big shots.

Neither side spoke. Nie Li and his group followed the two guards. Although the two guards were leading the way in front, they were also keeping an eye on the situation behind them at all times. But the problem was that Nie Li and his group did not say a word.

Seeing that Nie Li and the others were silent, the two had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk forward.

The closer you get to the center of the city, the surrounding city walls become shorter and lower, but also seem more restrained and luxurious. There are more pedestrians on the roadside, and you start to see people setting up stalls.

"Um, you two, can you let us take a look and buy something?" Nie Li looked around as he walked and saw something good in a stall in front of him, but he had to get closer to confirm its authenticity.

"Okay, okay, go ahead and look, we will definitely show you the way." One of them said quickly, sounding a bit flattering. Lu Piao touched his head awkwardly, not understanding what they meant, but since they said so, he should go and see. Without waiting for Nie Li to say anything, Lu Piao had already run out.

"Mad, I can't stand it any longer. It's so heavy, and you guys can stay here.

"This brother is really a man of temperament, haha." Seeing Lu Piao running away, the two men were not angry at all, but still looked somewhat flattering.

Nie Li now understood that he was not being monitored at all, but was being worshipped instead. Thinking of their looks before, he probably thought that someone from above had given the order.

Unexpectedly, he was treated so well when he first arrived. Nie Li looked at Yu Yan. She was the only one related to the Yunmeng World.

"This has nothing to do with me. I left Yunmeng World ten thousand years ago. It's impossible for anyone to know me."

Yu Yan shook his head and replied to Nie Li.

Forget it, let’s go and take a look first!

Nie Li rushed to the stall and looked at the thin old man in front of him. Nie Li remembered that in the Black Domain, there are indeed miserable people everywhere.

There were all kinds of strange and peculiar things on the old man's stall. Nie Li originally wanted to ask about the prices of other things first, so that the things he liked would seem not so important, and he might make a lot of money on the prices. But after seeing the old man, Nie Li gave up this idea. If that were the case, he would be too unhuman.

Nie Li picked up something, it was like a pot, but relatively small. If you had to say, it could barely cook three eggs.

This small pot feels cool to the touch, with a hint of cold air emanating from it. If you feel it carefully, you will find a warm current. It's really strange.

"This... is a pity." The original name of this pot was Zhentian Ding. It was a treasure of the demon spirit masters who specialized in ice and fire during the Minglan Empire. However, this pot... is a replica.

Nie Li thought all of this out in his mind, but he remained calm on the surface.

"Old man, how much is this tripod?"

Although this thing is a replica, it might be useful... Well, Nie Li himself wouldn't believe it.

This time Nie Li just wanted to help the old man.

"Ten, ten bags of rice." The old man finally spoke, but he stuttered a little and it seemed like he hadn't spoken for a long time.

"It's so cheap. Let's put it this way. This thing is very important to me. Thirty bags of rice. No more talk."

I didn't expect that this Yunmeng world also uses food as currency. No wonder when I saw food on several stalls just now, Nie Li thought they were selling food. Nie Li spoke very generously, wanting to help him more.

"This... that's a lot, thank you very much, sir."

The old man seemed to have some difficulty walking, so he stood up and thanked him. Nie Li took the small tripod, played with it, and walked forward, humming a song without caring, looking very leisurely.

After seeing Nie Li and his group walk away, the old man regained his composure. His face was no longer decadent, and his mouth was moving.

"Hmph, kid, it's no use giving you a chance." The old man picked up another item on the stall, put it away, and shook his head.
